Change...

With the new Facebook “Update”, it got me to thinking… It’s no wonder we as a society are against “Change” and are all walking around scratching our asses trying to figure out WTF just happened?!

When a change is implemented and little to no information is given on said change, we are left to “figure it out” aka “Bitch about it and make it up as we go along”, at which time is when things start to go very, very wrong!

When a change has been made at/to your job, life, contracts, laws, etc… It’s always good to enlighten one that a change has been or will be made, what that change entails, how it will affect you (if at all) and how to follow new change?  

When little to no information is given on a change, and we are left to “figure it out”, THIS is where all of the problems begin!

Now I am sure (positive) this dates back years and years, yet still, no one has caught on, that if you simply “educate” us, we will for the most part “learn” and carry on. Yes, some of us will still bitch about the change and continue to be ignorant about it, as if learning this new change some how does not include or apply to them, hence turning things into chaos! I.e. Driving!

While I am not a big fan of change, I will conform for the most part, simply because it will eventually benefit me to learn/know it, but I also don’t want to be that ass-hat that everyone is talking about when they bitch about the “moron on/at the freeway/work/life”! I would much rather take the extra time to learn it than to be a complete dumbass and remain ignorant! However, as with most changes it’s almost as tedious and monotonous as reading the “fine print” on a contract?!

If the people making the changes would take a step outside the box and realize that a very large chunk of the population are not as “Tech-savvy, intelligent or book smart” as they are, and simplify the process, things might take a turn for the better? Now, I am not delusional and think this is a “perfect world”, because quite frankly, it’s far from it! There are just too many “uneducated, non-book smart or non-street smart” (whatever you want to call it), people out there to impact them all, but there has to be a starting point?   

So I suggest this… Rather than sending those stupid mailers, send change notifications or emails, updates on pages, SOMETHING!? Letting us know that “changes, they are a comin’”!

 Communication is KEY, and while I don’t have all the answers, what I do know is this… Word of mouth goes a long, long way, but education goes MUCH further! True, one has to give a shit about said change, but for those of us who do care, can you take the fucking time to communicate your stellar ideas/changes so were not ALL fucking morons walking around in a state of stupor? Please?

Thanks!
